Question

determining order of operations for formulas
place the formula components in order of precedence from highest to lowest.
addition/subtraction
parentheses
exponents
multiplication/division

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Order of Operations

The standard order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS) is: Parentheses (brackets) first, then Exponents (orders), then Multiplication and Division (from left to right), then Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). So the precedence from highest to lowest is: parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction.

Step2: Arrange the Components

Based on the order of operations, the first (highest precedence) is parentheses, then exponents, then multiplication/division, and finally addition/subtraction.

Answer:

1. parentheses
2. exponents
3. multiplication/division
4. addition/subtraction
